The Park Centre's letting agent, Colliers International (Belfast), manages more than 15 shopping centres across the UK and said it believed there was still an appetite for growth in the sector.

Gemma Doherty, a senior surveyor for Colliers International, said: "We are delighted to confirm the three lettings, as in today's challenging retail environment they reinforce the centre's strong commitment to the area.

"We are confident that these new outlets will encourage other retailers to follow suit and those who capitalise on current market conditions will create a low cost platform for future sales and profit growth."
